Species of the Bras d’Or Collection
57 information sheets were created by one of our Partners, ACAP Cape Breton, and offer a brief introduction to members of numerous species that inhabit our biosphere.
We will be adding more examples every Monday and Friday until the end of November. Why not collect all 57 in your own reference binder?
You can discover where you will find these examples and thousands of other observations of species found in our own backyard by visiting the iNaturalist.ca website. You can also learn how to contribute your own discoveries and observations to that valuable dataset as well!
